Hanwei/Tinker Longsword, Sharp by Paul Chen / Hanwei

Sharp Longsword designed by Michael "Tinker" Pearce

Our Tinker Longswords (Oakeshott Type XVIIIa) provide the WMA practitioner with a fast,  well-balanced pair of swords that will perform beautifully in skilled hands.  The semi-fullered sharp blades exhibit a quick profile taper with a diamond section out to the tip,  providing the necessary stiffness for the cutting stroke.  The flattened scent-stopper pommel (Type T-1) forms a natural extension of the double-hand grip and the square-section guard provides solid security.  What others are saying about the Tinker Pearce Longswords:

"I had the opportunity to handle the prototype Tinker Pearce Line Longswords by CAS/Hanwei, and they are beautiful, well-balanced, quick-handling swords at an excellent price. The sharp and blunt versions handle almost identically in cuts, thrusts, and quick posta (guard) transitions. These promise to be the mid-priced training weapon of choice for longsword studies." Sean Hayes, Maestro d`armi, Northwest Fencing Academy and University of Oregon
